Lucid for Developers

Hi, My organisation has an enterprise subscription, and I am the account owner of our organisation. I am struggling to access the developer portal. When attempting to access https://lucid.app/developer I receive an error stating “To unlock the Developer Portal, contact your admin for the developer role assignment. Unsure who your admin is? Check our documentation for guidance.” But I am the account owner, and therefore not able to assign the developer role to myself (assuming it is because the account owner role already contains the developer role). I’ve read through the documentation that says I should “Enable developer tools” in my user profile, however that toggle doesn’t exist. Nothing within my user profile

When you move folder to the trashwith the Lucidchart command “Move to trash”, you find it in the trash folder.If you empty the trash folder, the folder is not visible anymore but in fact it is still there because if you use the end point “https://api.lucid.co/folders/search” the deleted folders are retrieved.How could we really delete folders?Best regards.

I'm trying to create an OAuth 2.0 application that can access our Lucidchart diagrams.I believe,  our organization needs the Lucid Developer Platform enabled so we can create OAuth 2.0 API clients with scopes (lucidchart.document.content, user.profile, offline_access). When I try to create an OAuth 2.0 application, there is no place in the UI to add scopes.Does something need to be enabled on our account to get these options? 

Hi,We’re building an automation using n8n where an AI agent generates a flowchart spec and then creates a Lucidchart diagram automatically.We’re already successfully using the Documents API with an API key to call:POST https://api.lucid.co/v1/documentsto create a new Lucid document.What we’re missing is a supported API for editing document contents – specifically, creating shapes and connectors on a page programmatically.Could you please clarify:Is there a supported, documented API (REST or otherwise) that allows us to: Create shapes (e.g., rectangles) Create connectors between shapes Set text labels and basic style in a Lucidchart (or Lucidspark) document? If yes: What is the endpoint URL and HTTP method? What auth mechanism is required (API key vs OAuth 2.0), and which s

Did API exist on LucidSpark for developers ?

Hi all! I'm new here. I want to use the Lucidchart Rest API to test some integrations and automations. I have an individual plan, but it doesn’t seem to offer the option to create an API key. I would like to confirm whether I need to pay for a Team licence to create my API keys. Tks in advance.

Hey,We have configured an OAuth 2.0 application from the old Admin “integrations” section. This was working for years, however recently customers have been unable to connect. Is it related to this by any chance?Can we figure out what the problem here is? I can also no longer create a new OAuth application.

My team wants to automate the flow of pulling Workday Org Data and importing into Lucid Org Charts. I need help understanding how to do this with Lucid via an Azure Cloud Function pulling from Workday. Please and thank you in advance! :) 

Dear Lucid Community,I’m encountering package ID conflicts while testing a locally loaded extension. I suspect Lucid’s heartbeat mechanism is polling all extensions registered under my account, causing errors despite my manifest specifying the correct package ID. Below are the errors:2603117…cd8957bf.js.br:2598 Attempting to heartbeat data from a locally loaded extension with package id: 404f484c-776f-4e9c-aaf1-0ecb56722e84 but the current locally loaded extension has package id: 7d1b85e8-df91-4c38-8e97-a10345ac9bf3.

Using the endpoint point “https://api.lucid.co/documents/search” we can get a list of the document as the documentation says :“Retrieves information about documents that the authenticated user has at least read only access to”But how to know which user is authenticated when calling this endpoint ?As the Oauth2.0 App used could be shared to several user, when i use this token, all the documents of my subscription are retrieved even if some user don’t have access to these documents.Did I miss something ?Regards.

I followed this existing post about seeing a custom icon while in development: Unfortunately, I am still not able to get mine to work.  I have the resources folder and I have a png file in there.  Here is my panel.  constructor(client: EditorClient, modelManager: ModelManager) { super(client, { title: 'Quodsi Model', url: 'quodsim-react/index.html?panel=model', // Query param helps the React app identify which panel it is location: PanelLocation.RightDock, iconUrl: 'http://localhost:9900/resources/quodsi-icon1.png', width: 300 });I still see broken link image.  Thoughts?Thanks, Dan

Hi, I’m new to LucidCharts and am trying to use the JSON standard import API to create a diagram. I am able to upload the json file to see the rendered diagram and that’s all good. However, for a container shape that I want to use, I am unable to specify text that appears in the shape. Below is a simple JSON file that makes use of containers. I’ve specified 2 different ways to create the container, and for both, I can’t see text in the diagram. Can someone point out how to specify text for the container shapes with id=”containerTest” and “container1”? (I would prefer to use “container1” formatting). After making manual changes to the rendered diagram, I would like to export this diagram to CSV, having the shape text appear in the “Text Area 1” or “Text Area 2” columns.  { "product": "lucidchart", "version": 1, "pages": [ {

This announcement is for accounts with OAuth2 clients in the admin portal. If all your OAuth2 clients are in the dev portal (https://lucid.app/developer#/packages), then you don’t have to worry about this message.  Within the next few months, we’re moving all OAuth2 clients from the admin portal into the dev portal, where they’ll be given a new home in automatically created packages. All migrated OAuth2 clients will keep the same clientId, secret, redirect URIs, and embed domains.  These automatic actions will make these changes as seamless as possible: The new package owner will default to the account owner. Admins with previous access will be added as code editors. The account owner can then manage and give package ownership to someone else on the

I'm trying to upload a custom shape library (XYZ-shape-library, based on example-shape-library from GitHub) to the Lucid Developer Portal for our enterprise instance. Using npx lucid-package bundle on Windows, but getting error on Developer portal while uploading zip package that i created using  npx lucid-package@latest bundle ---Portal Error: "We could not upload that file. Please try again with a different .zip file. Shape library error in GHD-shape-library: Unknown error: zip END header not found [<no file>]"Tried:

Hello Team,I am working on a project to extract process flow data from Lucidchart diagrams using the Lucid REST API.My Goal:To accurately reconstruct the complete process flow, including annotations provided by Sticky Notes.The Blocker:My current data extraction process successfully captures connected shapes and lines. However, many of our diagrams use Sticky Notes that are visually near, but not formally connected by lines, to flow elements. Since these sticky notes are not connected, they are completely missed when I traverse the diagram data extracted via the API. My Question:When using the Lucid REST API, how can I access or associate Sticky Notes that are not physically connected to other shapes in the diagram, so that I can include them in my extracted flow data?Any guidance on accessing these unconnected items via the API would be greatly a

I have the OAuth 1.0 implementation now and I am moving towards using OAuth 2.0Currently using this endpoint in order to grant a group access to a document `https://documents.lucidchart.com/documents/${documentId}/groups/${groupId}` Is there something like this in the OAuth 2.0 docs? I haven’t been able to find anything similar, other than granting an individual user access to a document via  https://lucid.readme.io/v1.0/reference/putdocumentusercollaboratorsAnd I was able to find this: https://lucid.readme.io/v1.0/reference/updatefoldergroupcollaboratorDoes this imply that it is only supported to grant groups access to a folder, and not an individual document? Tha

Hi Lucid Developers!🌟 We just launched our JSON Import functionality within the Standard Import API, and it's set to revolutionize the way you create and visualize data in diagrams.🔍 Why is JSON Import a Big Deal?Simplicity and Power: Compared to other import methods, JSON import is less complicated yet more powerful, making it possible to auto-create detailed diagrams. Fully Automated Workflow: You can now automate your entire diagram creation process more quickly. No need to open Lucid - just

I am experiencing an issue with pagination with the Search Folders endpoint where no results are returned when the page token is used. In the example I am testing with there are 4 folders returned if no page size query param is provided. If we provide a page size of 1, a single result is returned as expected, and the Link header property is returned as well with the page token. If we attempt to pass that page token as a query param to that same endpoint, we receive a 200 OK but an empty array in the response body.Testing a similar scenario with the Search Documents endpoint everything works as expected. We are able to pass a page size of 1 and use the page tokens to page through the results as expected. This particular issue only seems to occur with the Search Folders endpoint.

ello,I am trying to use a Python script to get a list of our users via the SCIM API.I am facing a persistent issue. When I generate a new SCIM bearer token, it either fails authentication entirely (returns zero users) or it successfully fetches the user list but is missing the crucial license and role data (urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:lucid:1.0:User).I have confirmed my script is correct and have regenerated the token more than 5 times. The problem is with the permissions being granted to the token itself. Our SCIM admin page does not have any settings for "Attribute Mapping" to fix this.Can you please urgently check our account's backend SCIM configuration and ensure that any new token I generate has full read permissions for all user attributes, including the lucid:1.0:User extension?Thank you.

Hi team,I noticed that the SCIM API doc for Lucid chart lists standard schemas, but I’m trying to confirm if the following custom schema is supported:urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:tenant:2.0:UserIt’s not returned in the /Schemas endpoint response, and when I tried passing it in a request, the value doesn’t appear in the response either.Just wanted to check, is this schema supported by Lucid chart SCIM API? Or does Lucid not support custom schema extensions like this?Thanks!

I would like to use the thumbnail property of the shapeDefinition schema. Can you help me know how it works? For instance, is my string pointing to an SVG file or is the string the SVG paths?

Hi team,I'm working with the Lucid Chart REST API, specifically on the Teams endpoints, and I’ve observed some unexpected behavior when authenticating via different user roles using OAuth 2.0. Context: I have two Lucid accounts in the same organization: An Account Owner (admin-level privileges) Developer Role account (non-admin, added as a tester collaborator in the OAuth 2.0 app) I’ve registered an OAuth 2.0 app and generated two separate access tokens via Authorization Code flow, one for each user. The developer role account has only teams + offline_access scope authorized, and is a member of only one team.  Observations:1. When using the develop

The end point for exporting document to Png is no more available.request.Headers.Add("Accept", "image/png;dpi=200"When you run it, you get a HTTP 400 error.If you use jpeg, it runs as expectedrequest.Headers.Add("Accept", "image/jpeg;dpi=200"One more remark. Could be interesting to be able to export to “.vdx” and “vsdx” Microsoft Visio format with this end point. I know it is an old, old request but in case 😊.Regards.
